I don't understand why we can't just all be all hakuna matata and shit. The USA and our neighboring Americans seem to not be getting along very well. We all need to smoke a bowl and hug each other. As far as I understand it, the following places are ALL AMERICA: USA CANADA MEXICO JAMAICA BELIZE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC THE BAHAMAS CUBA HAITI VENEZUELA TRINIDAD TOBAGO GUYANA SURINAME FRENCH GUIANA BRAZIL COLUMBIA ECUADOR PANAMA COSTA RICA NICARAGUA GUATEMALA EL SALVADOR HONDURAS PERU BOLIVIA PARAGUAY URUGUAY ARGENTINA CHILE CAPE HORN & THE FALKLAND ISLANDS. THESE PLACES ARE ALL PART OF NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICA. Just thought I'd remind all of those who over the years and through bombardment of nationalism brainwashing in the media, may have forgotten that. Our family is a lot larger than we sometimes remember. America has some internal hugging to do, as gross as that sounds *hugs all of America* Love you fuckers, ONE LOVE! *hugs rest of the world* love you fuckers too, even though you talk a lot of shit
OP... I don't know what to say dude... EDIT: I see what you're saying. But still, there's a big difference between North America, Central America and South America. But in the name of peace, yes, let's smoke a bowl.
So then why do canadians call their natives "first nations" instead of Native Americans? Just wondering?
Ironic... He says MY ignorance (I am an American and he said "the ignorance of Americans") astounds him, before he deleted it. However, it was his own ignorance, and failure to read thoroughly, that caused him to think that. "You consider all those countries to be American?" Yes, they are in North, "Central", and South AMERICA. EXACTLY what I'm trying to remind the people (like you) who forget that. America is 2 continents, not one country.
calling every country america is a little ignorant in itself. but yes it would be nice to sit down and blaze one country to country. but maybe address them as the other countries america loves. not all the other Americas
No need to be hostile, I just got the wrong tone from your post. I'm just saying you can't have it in your head that Mexico and Canada and Brazil are all part of America, because generally when one says "America", they are referring to the USA.
Love how so many people hate this country but continue to stay here. If you don't like it here, get the fuck out -Robb
so i told someone that one of my pet peeves was when people refer to people from the united states as "americans" while they wont refer to canadians or mexicans as "americans." she stared at me blankly for a second and said, i'll never forget it, "canadians and mexicans aren't americans." when did the US claim a monopoly on who americans are?! if anything we should advertise that all people in the americas are americans so that the US can spread some of the hate on "americans." just a thought.
Ignorance does not equal hate. I love America. In fact I got my American citizenship last year. I hold dual citizenship (Canada and USA) and I love both countries. Every country is ignorant in their own way, Americans just happen to be especially stubborn and narrow minded. They are brought up thinking that America owns the whole world and everybody should bow down to them.
